A 16-year-old American citizen was put in a chokehold by immigration agents who later appeared to sell his confiscated phone for cash. Arnoldo Bazan's ordeal began when he and his father stopped at McDonald's for breakfast before school, only to be pursued by masked ICE agents through Houston streets. The tenth grader ended up hospitalised in a trauma unit—and his phone tracking led to a shocking discovery about what happened to the device he'd used to film the encounter.
Arnoldo and his father, Arnulfo Bazan Carrillo, were getting McDonald's when unmarked vehicles surrounded their car. Masked immigration agents started banging on the windows. As his undocumented father drove off, the terrified teenager began filming on his phone. The video shows agents repeatedly ramming the Bazans' car during a slow chase through the city.
